Great weekend away

We really enjoyed our stay. The property was extremely clean and well taken care of. We used the kitchen and everything was stocked and in good condition. The villa was still decorated for Christmas, which was nice for the lit trees. We enjoyed the gas fireplace and indoor games. It was super cold out this weekend, so we spent more time at the villa than expected since we could do our planned hikes. I would definitely stay here again.

One of the best places we have ever stayed!

Property was exactly how it was described. It was spotless and had everything we needed & more for a perfect stay. Absolutely loved walking in and seeing the home tastefully decorated for fall. It felt like home! Now that we have stayed here we will never stay anywhere else when visiting the starved rock area. Thank you Anetka for sharing this wonderful home with us!
